It won't be finished by August, but it won't need to be.

Waiting to hear what the estimated time will be on that. I cant see it be inside of 3 months even for the GDOT.

Any word on what started the fire?

Is that accounting for any weather that might happen? It gets weird in Georgia during the summer. I think they've had a pretty stable run so far so it hasn't had any affect on construction.

How often do you get 2 or 3 consecutive days of all day rain in Atlanta anymore?

We will be fine since the project does not include a Venus fkytrap roof.

Fair enough. At the very least it would keep them from moving heavy equipment too much along the field for a bit.

You're going to turf right? Not natural grass?

Looks Great! Congrats again!

By the way where did Trent Miles go? Assistant somewhere? Curious.

RE: Turner Field to be sold to Georgia State University - panama - 04-07-2017 02:10 PM

Spending that buyout no doubt. Made about $1M that last year.

Here's an imgur album of pictures I took at the stadium today.

Lots of progress being made. The project is very well on schedule and it projected to be finished in mid-August to host a local high school football season kickoff event that got booted from Mercedes-Benz stadium due to delays with that project.

Any reason they left in the lower seats directly behind home plate. Why didn't they remove the first 4-5 rows and continue the wall all the way around. No offense, but looks kind of weird with that little section jutting out.

According to the seating chart released, those first couple rows are due to be removed and replaced with field-level loge seating.
